Do you think they held Reagan to the same “schooling” standards when he ran for POTUS? I can’t recall lack of knolwedge on foreign policy as a campagin issue, and being an actor and Eureka college grad is not exactly schooling for the governorship or WH.

I don’t think even Reagan was subjected to the electron microscopy level “standards” scrutiny of Sarah Palin’s every move. For me, the only interesting aspect concerning the stale and tired brick throwers, is what specifically is it about Sarah Palin that they REALLY fear?

So does PDS stand for:

Palin Derangement Syndrome or

Palin Double Standard?

I think it’s difficult to make the comparison between Sarah Palin and Ronald Reagan at this point in their careers (he running for President after 2 terms as Gov of CA). He had a great deal more experience than she did, having been Governor for 2 terms and being much older. I remember listening to him speak on TV in 1976 and was very impressed (I think he was running for the nomination, but Ford got it). He was already well versed. I never heard him speak unschooled.
